High-Performance Open-Source Archive
Use this page to choose a visual direction before you retrofit or create vignettes. You can tune one parameter at a time and immediately see the effect on hierarchy, contrast, and page rhythm.
Start with family and preset, then tune style, then adjust content width. That order gives the fastest path to a coherent page.
